Throw this out to you. If you had an idea someone was fiddling the system. Calcimine to be ill or living with someone full time but claiming to be single or many other fiddles that happen would you go to the bother of rining up and telling the benefits people?

Yes. I've done it before and would do it again!

I knew someone who was claiming benefits and working on the side cash in hand. She used to brag about it and eventually I thought why should honest, hard working people support you while you cheat the system.

Now she is one of us, works hard for what she has and supports her family

Another question for you..... Would you "dob" on someone because you feel it's your right as a tax paying citizen or because you have a grudge against the person?

How long do you have to be checking/spying/stalking a person to know they are "fiddling" you and the system?

Without a doubt yes.... I pay my taxes so I'm entitled to grass. I think if your in hardship then that's what benefits are there for. But to then take advantage is wrong. I'm sure we all have our opinions on this.

Yes, I would - people moan and whinge about other being on the fiddle or scroungers etc. The only way to root them out if you know it is happening is to play a part in stopping it.

The country is in the shit financially, surely we all have a moral duty to do something about it if we know something wrong is happening.

If that makes me a do gooder, then so be it.

I've always said I wouldn't, but have now got to the stage where I think why should I work all the hours god sends and these people are claiming when they shouldn't be. I'm not having a dig at genuine people as I know there could come a day and I may need to claim.

Piddling amounts? Even if it was piddling amounts, they mount up! My family member is receiving about £400 per month in tax credits as a single patent yet should only receive about £200 per month, if that as she is living with someone. That is not a piddling amount!

All scammers and fraudsters, rich or poor should be stopped!

Those piddling amounts have let my family member have a holiday to Mexico and a skiing holiday in Colorado, whilst I have had to apply for a sun holiday, 4 days in Devon!! She clearly is not poor!! Me on the other hand....

i knew a girl a very long time ago, i liked her a lot she had 2 kids and the man she lived with was married, she said she was claiming the money she wasnt entitled to and saving it in case her boyfriend left her.

the landlord charged a lot of money for a crappy little flat.

in the end she got found out and got sent to prison for 3 months.

I would have felt sorry for her kids, not for her! So when her bf left her (if he ver did), not only wouldahe have had the money she fraudently claimed but then would have received increases in her benefits as a single parent????

Ive done it before

The people who used to live next door was running a puppy farm on their back yard, they always had 3 or 4 litters on the go while claiming benifits for him being disabled, they was making thousands a year selling puppies on the side so i shopped them

Mainly because i didnt agree with the way they kept the dogs, so i reported them to the council who then involved the RSPCA and then the tax man got involved

If anyone can 'fiddle' their benefits, and wants to live that lifestyle, good luck to them. It's a life with a pretty low ceiling in terms of aspiration, and worthy of pity, not malice.

The funny thing is, benefit fraud is such a tiny fraction of the actual benefit bill that it's barely worth policing, and it has zero effect on the country's ability to pay genuine benefits. The benefit cuts being made by our government are completely ideological, and have nothing to do with anything else. To think otherwise is to have been fooled by the lie.

If there was a genuine desire to tackle this nation's debt, resources would be used to tackle the genuinely serious issue of legal corporate tax avoidance. Pick a number between £5Bn and £25Bn, and there's the scope of what it means to our economy.

Of course, that will never happen. Far easier to set the working poor against the non-working poor, the abled against the disabled, the public sector against the private sector...idiots against idiots, in short.

Trebles all round, etc.

I have been in this situation by being reported by someone who did not like me.

I had over three months of stress proving that I was not on the fiddle. Even down to being followed for two weeks, numerous recorded inter_iews and eventually told not that "I was innocent" but "that they could not prove it but would be watching me hehehehehe.

At no point through all this was I told just who had made the origional complaint. By all means make complaints towards me if you feel I am doing wrong. BUT do it to my face so at least I have a chance to explain myself.

"I have been in this situation by being reported by someone who did not like me.

I had over three months of stress proving that I was not on the fiddle. Even down to being followed for two weeks, numerous recorded inter_iews and eventually told not that "I was innocent" but "that they could not prove it but would be watching me hehehehehe.

At no point through all this was I told just who had made the origional complaint. By all means make complaints towards me if you feel I am doing wrong. BUT do it to my face so at least I have a chance to explain myself.

"

Not nice but if you have not been fiddling you have nothing to worry about. So they followed you so someone complained if you didn't loose money you shouldn't have been stressed if 100% innocent.

If you've done nothing wrong then why the stress? Surely knowing in your heart you're own innocence will harden the resolve rather than worry you.

Must assume that those who would do so have never added a bit on their expenses..?

I tend to mind my own business.

Unlike you who seems to feel he has to justify his existence on the planet.

I see no need to worry about 0.8% of benefit being given out incorrectly.

That figure also includes payments made in error by the DHSS.

The entire amount is massively less than the amount not paid in corporation tax by big companies.

I shall lose not a minutes sleep over it in all my life.

Having witnessed an innocent person commit suicide after being falsely accused of benefit fraud.

Had their money stopped and made to feel so bad they took their own life.

All because some prick thought they were doing good.

It's only several billion a year, so hey, nothing to worry about! Not like it matters! I think most people are bothered that they work, don't fiddle and tend to be worse off than those who do....so you will remain the minority.

I definitely won't lose sleep over your comments as busy enough with people who do care and do something about it!

I agree with that and can understand, but in fraud cases the majority of people who are called in for an inter_iew have committed fraud. Being caught is their main cause of nerves

If someone is innocent then they are not going to get destroyed they get fairly investigated if the accusation looks to have some merit.

Facts are if you really think someone is no the fiddle then you report them and let the powers that be investigate.

That would hold up as an opinion if you were not targeting just people on benefits ,why not corporations who defraud ,why not police who took back handers from the press ,why specifically are you targeting people on benefits. as people who should be "dobbed" in are they bigger criminals than the others or do you just like getting stuck into people less fortunate than you ?

I have no problems with that. My origional point was that the accuser always remains a noni mouse hehehehe.

Is this not open to abuse as it was in my case. I think that a phone call is enough to start it all off. A check on the one accusing will quickly tell if it is a realistic complaint or just trouble making. That was my point.

If you look at previous posts this has already been mentioned and I don't think anyone disagrees, it was just the thread was specifically about benefit fraud. could have been about any of those you mentioned and some one would still not be happy with replies!

They have no other purpose in the system.

If in 12 months only a handful of claims were found to be fraudulent,then they would simply get rid of those investigating.

I don't mind having a conversation with someone if they know what they are talking about......so please, enlighten me with where you get your knowledge on this from???? Of course, you could be right, we could take a phone call from Mr X saying M P is fiddling and within 5 minutes we stop their benefit and call them in to an inter_iew....no evidence, no investigation, nothing!!!! Oh I wish it was that easy!!

Like I say it is VERY rare that we inter_iew innocent people....that's what investigating is about!

Please. tell me what the job entails, I await your insight!

Far be it for me to tell you how to do your job.

I came to point out, not everyone is cheating the system.

Very few if we are to believe your departments reports.

Asking people to report someone because they think they may be a benefit cheat, is just not comfortable for me anymore.

If they openly admit to you they are doing so, then pick up the phone.

How many do it out of spite or jealousy though.

Not everyone who is disabled has a visable disability, so just think before you jump up and down accusing them of being scum and benefit cheats

Ok, well to be honest nobody said at any point that "everyone was fiddling the system", also the majority of allegations are neighbours, friends and family members who have evidence to support it. A lot is from data matching so evidence is obtained before we see someone. We don't go looking for people and we will not and do not investigate just on someone's word.

As for the last paragraph where has anyone accused people of being benefit cheats?? It was about whether you would report someone if you knew they were on the fiddle??

With regard to disabilities not always visible I am more than aware of that thank you.

Don't tar people with the same brush as I do not tar all people on benefit with the same brush. I am an advocate for those who need and deserve to receive money, those who are not well enough to work or who have paid in to the system and are 100% entitled to take out of it when the need arises. Just not people who are greedy bastards and deliberately fraud the system!!

I think we all know the ones you refer to.

I have in the past made a phone call about a person claiming benefit.

Though he did stand in front of my car as I parked after a bad day at work, and proclaimed "fucking retard working while I was in the pub spending my Giro"

Turned out he was claiming a lot more than sick pay.

Just still upsets me when folk take the high moral ground, when they have zero experiance in any of the system.

My friend had severe mental problems and was convinced he was going to be made homeless and maybe even jailed.

He just went home and took all his medication after reading the letter from the DHSS.

Turned out to be a case of mistaken identity in the end.

Warm an cosy cave. Brist

Every benefit claimant is being tared with the same brush here. those that have lost thier jobs and having trouble getting another, long term sick people, singles with children.

Benefits barely pay for food let alone gas electric rent, and you have no chance of getting a day off. Some thing that those who have an income take for granted, like go out for a meal and take two weeks holiday a year because they earned it, is fair enough but to slag off every else who is less fortunate is wrong.

If they are able to do a "bit of cash in hand work" to help pay the bills or have a rare treat like a nice meal out, then good luck to them.

But I would draw the line at some that would take advantage of the system, because they don't want to work.

Have you ever paid a workman cash to avoid VAT? Have you ever done anything to get something on the cheap? Does everyone always declare all their earnings? Fact is we all play the game. I wouldn't claim to know enough about anyone to ever "dob them in". One can take the _iew that if someone is claiming benefits while working than that additional cash is in some way finding its way into the system through additional spending. He who casts the first stone and all that.

Not me I pay my dues, if I thought someone was committing fraud then I would have no problems in reporting and if someone thiught I was then report away although never maid a benefit claim in my life to date.

"I would. Too many good people have lost their jobs and businesses due to recession, brought on in many parts by too many benefit claimaints, and people taking what they're not entitled to and not paying what they should. Fair's fair. "

@totally, would you still do it if it was was someone who had recently lost their job/business?
